How to Spank the Establishment Media
American Thinker.com ^ | July 22, 2020 | Jon N. Hall

It’s astounding how the establishment media allows known Democrat liars to continue spewing out their vicious falsehoods without challenge. Our legacy media has concluded, perhaps correctly, that Americans just aren’t concerned about serial lying, even by contenders for high office. July 5 on NBC’s “Meet the Press,” former Obama official Susan Rice said this: “The president went to Mount Rushmore and then stood at the White House yesterday on our independence weekend and decided that he was going to stake his legacy and his campaign on preserving Confederate monuments and the relics of slavery.”

One wonders how Rice would know that the president had “decided” such a thing, for nowhere in his July 3 address at Mt. Rushmore nor in his July 4 address, did President Trump use the word “Confederate,” and when he spoke of “slavery,” it was in the context of its evil. But did moderator Andrea Mitchell ask Rice why she was making such an accusation? Of course not; what do you think "Meet the Press" is, a news program? C’mon, man. What Mitchell did do was to immediately segue into the possibility that Rice could be on the November ballot as Biden’s running mate.

If one disapproves of the lying and distortions put out by the mainstream media, there’s a way to fight it: don’t pay for it. But how, you might ask, can I do that? Well, “Meet the Press” is pumped out by NBC News. So, if you object to the lies on NBC News or to the lies on its vile sister, MSNBC, then you might consider financially spanking the company that ultimately owns them… Comcast.

If you want a la carte packages on cable tv, cut the cord to force cable tv companies to offer that option.

They will not give up the basic bundle(content providers love it) until they are economically forced to offer it.

Any channel in the basic bundle gets a subscriber fee. Everyone paying for a basic bundle is subsidizing CNN, MSNBC, etc. Subscriber fees are half of CNN’s revenue.

Cut the cord until the cable tv companies offer a la carte services.

What about establishment media meteorologists? Don't they too deserve a spanking?

In my area the two choices I have for broadband internet service are Verizon and Comcast. Verizon is only marginally less evil.

5G is supposed to give us more choices in this area but most of those providers aren’t any better. Conservatives should have been getting into the tech business 20 years ago. Really behind the curve now.

Better bring in an expert to answer that question.
